Sprinkler fire pipe markers meet specification compliances for ANSI / ASME A13.1 standards for the identification of fire sprinkler system pipes. No preparation is needed for these markers. Sprinkler fire markers are available in two styles for pipe outside diameters ranging in size up to ten inches and provide 360 degree visibility. 2 nylon ties are included with all markers for pipes with an outside diameter of 6-1/8" and larger so they can be easily affixed to the pipe.

System #1 Markers: Wrap Around and Strap On Markers

These markers are manufactured with rigid vinyl, surface is printed with UV ink and then thermoformed. Thermoformed pipe markers are styles A thru E (pipes 1" thru 6"). These markers are simply uncoiled by hand, and automatically recoiled around the pipe. Marker sizes C, D, E are supplied with a 1/2" wide strip of 3M™ 467 adhesive which only needs to be released when there is a constant pipe temperature of 120 degrees or more. Marker styles F thru H (pipes over 6") are not thermoformed because of their size, they are installed using nylon ties. Style F is supplied with two 34" long ties, styles G and H are supplied with two 48" long ties. For pipes larger than 14" in diameter order additional nylon ties.

These Markers are available in 2 ways, Coiled (Wrap Around) and flat with holes (Strap On).

For pipe diameters 3/4" thru 6" use Wrap Around Markers (Styles A, B, C, D, E) these markers are simply uncoiled by hand and automatically recoil around the pipe.

For pipe diameters 6" or larger use Strap On Markers (Styles F, G, H) these markers are installed using nylon ties or S.S. Strapping, Brimar supplies a pair of nylon ties with each of these markers.

Advantages of System #1 Markers: No pipe preparation, 360° visibility, speed of installation, arrows included and overall better appearance.

MARKER SIZE, LETTER HEIGHT & MAX. CHARACTERS PER MARKER CHART

The following chart shows the recommended pipe marker letter height and marker size based on the outside pipe diameter of the pipe to be identified. For pipes smaller than 3/4" and for valve identification, the use of a permanent legible tag is recommended.

Color is the secondary means to identify the contents of a piping system but, many times the most important. The color of the marker should be used to identify the characteristic hazard of the contents of the pipe. The following chart list the classifications shown by ANSI / ASME A13.1 2007 as the suggested color combinations for the pipe markers.

LEGENDS & DIRECTIONAL FLOW

The standard regards the legend (wording on marker) to be the primary means of identifying the content of the pipe. The marker should give the name of the contents of the pipe in either the full name or abbreviated form. Arrows are also required to indicate the directional flow of the contents. Legends should be brief, pointed, and simple for greatest effectiveness. Contents should be identified with sufficient additional details such as temperature, pressure, etc., as are necessary to identify the hazard.

Legends shall be installed close to valves

Legends shall be installed near branches and whenever a pipe changes direction.

Legends shall be installed before and after all wall, floor and ceiling penetrations.

Strap-On Vinyl
Semi-rigid colored PVC vinyl extruded with UV inhibition for outdoor durability. Vinyl material has four slotted holes which allow the marker to be easily strapped to a pipe.

This Sprinkler Fire Pipe Marker is printed with the latest digital printing practices, which reduce set-up times and allows SafetySign.com to ship out faster than competitors. These advanced printing processes also eliminate set-up charges and order minimums. At SafetySign.com, we print your Sprinkler Fire Pipe Marker with UV and chemical resistant inks directly to the substrate, helping to ensure durability in industrial and commercial use.

Printing Methods

We choose our printing processes for each product carefully so you receive the best quality product at the lowest price with industry-leading turnaround times. Depending on your size, material, quantity, and other factors, your sign will print using one of our carefully-tested methods.

Cross-Hatch Ink Adhesion Test

SafetySign.com’s advanced printing process undergoes a stringent cross-hatching test. This specifically tests the adhesion and resistance to separation of the inks from the sign. In testing, a sample from the printing process is scored and covered in adhesive tape. The tape is removed and the sample assessed for adhesion quality.

We use a three-stage process to test all of our printing processes. We print our signs using only the processes that pass all three stages, giving you the highest quality signage possible.

Fonts

The text is printed in Arial Bold font.

The Sprinkler Fire Pipe Marker from SafetySign.com uses this font to create a bold message that stands out in order to grab your attention, while also remaining clearly legible at the maximum safe viewing distance of the product.
